Understand Your Client's Motivation


Building trust with clients isn't just a box to tick—it's the cornerstone of a successful business. With his extensive background in real estate negotiations, Eirik Davey-Gislason emphasizes the pivotal role of trust in elevating your business to new heights.



Character and Competence


Character encompasses integrity, motive, and intent, while competence revolves around capabilities, skills, and results. To build trust, communicate your approach clearly and manage clients' expectations. Be transparent about your process, setting realistic timelines and pricing strategies. This showcases competence and establishes your character as a trustworthy professional.
